and Duryea Qnd.) is elected in the Third Suf-
| folk district.
| 0 p. m.-The enormous crowds in the
| streets and in the corridors of the leading
| hotels at this hour indicate that the interest
| in the State contest in this city is very
much more intense than usual. The usual
| election crowd occupies that narrow part of
| Washington street called Newspaper Row.
| At the Republican headquarters Chairman
| Burden claims that the Republican ticket
| will have a plurality of not less than Il, 000
| and may reach II, 600 The net loss for the
| Democratic ticket in Boston is 5000, while
| the Republicans claim that the returns SO far
| in show that they have gained three or four
senators and a dozen or more representatives.
The total returns received so far at the Re-
publican headquarters show a Democratic net
loss in the State of 9,40O. At the Democratic
headquarters they are making no claims
cept that the vote will be found to be close
when the returns are all in.

town in eastern Massachusetts give Ames
Sc, 1854, Lowering SO, 652, Earle 3,003. This

drews III. Two hundred and eleven cities
and towns with the city of Somerville includ-
ed give: Ames 115, ISL, Lowering 102, 1876
$50 p. m.-The re election of Oliver Ameg
ia at 1v
ceded on all sides, and the returns favor the
belief that the claims of an increased plural
ity for their candidate by the Republicans
are we'll founded. Although the fight on the
gubernatorial ticket has been an exceedingly
warm one, there have been q number of con
tests among senatorial and representative
candidates which have been almost unprece-
dented for bitterness. These have because
of this bitterness provoked even more inter
est and excitement than were occasioned by
the contest for the governorship. Probably
the bitterest senatorial fight was that
in the Fourth Suffolk district in
which Sullivan, Democrat, has defeated E.
J. Jenkins, the present incumbent, who was
endorsed by both independent Democrats
and Republicans. Hon. Patrick Dwyer, Ind
Dem, defeats Harkins, regular Democrat, il
the Third district. Collins, Democrat, is
elected over L. D. Packard, Republican, in
the Sixth district, while Henry II. Sprague
Rep.) is elected in the Fifth district. South
worth (Rep.) is elected in the Charlestown
district after an extremely bitter fight and
Senator Slsttery is said to have been re-
elected from birmingham. In Fall River
Senator Howard Labor and Democra0 is re-
elected by majority reduced to 600 from
800 last year. In the First Norfolk district
Stevens Rep.) is elected by large majority
over Hart Dem).
